Chapter 100 What does it taste like?
"Well, how about trying it..."
The bus was not driving smoothly, it was rumbling and the windows were vibrating.
Lin Wanzhou's heartbeat kept accelerating, and his chest felt like it was beating like a deer.
"What do you want to try?"
Her little hand had already reached into her schoolbag. If Xu Cheng dared to ask for a kiss, she would take out the water bottle and hit him on the head.
The kind that uses super force!
It’s not over yet… I’m going to shine the anti-wolf flashlight on him and then stuff my shoes into his mouth!
Two for him and two for me.
"Why are you so nervous all of a sudden?"
Xu Cheng was surprised and handed her the candy in his hand. "Here, it's durian flavored. Do you want to try it?"
Lin Wanzhou was stunned and turned his head away.
"don't want……"
His face was still red.
Who wants to eat your broken candy?
Because they had to change buses, the two got off at a bus stop on the side of the road and waited for another bus to come.
It was almost noon, the sun was a little strong, the temperature was gradually rising, and the dewdrops evaporated before they could even drip from the bent grass.
The bus stop sign was very shabby, the road was a little narrow, with green rice fields and countless weeds on both sides. Xu Cheng suddenly remembered the bus stop where Kikujiro and Masao waited for the bus in "Kikujiro's Summer".
"Let's sit here for a while."
He pointed to the dirty bench in front of the bus stop.
Lin Wanzhou tugged at the corner of his clothes and stopped him from sitting down.
"Hmm...wait a minute..."
She took small steps and ran behind Xu Cheng, ripped open the zipper of his backpack, took out two old newspapers from the outermost layer and handed them to him.
"See, I expected this to happen. The newspaper can be used as a cushion for your butt."
"Very good, I like your wit."
There were few people around, only a low village in the distance, and they were the only two people in the small station.
In the grass, some kind of insect was chirping softly, and a snail was climbing up the bus stop pole with its heavy shell on its back.
Lin Wanzhou's smooth calves were supported diagonally on the ground, with the heels of her white shoes touching the ground. Perhaps because of the burning sun, her palms would rub her legs from time to time.
She was in a good mood, forgetting the slight unhappiness in her heart just now, and hummed softly with a slight smile on her lips.
"In the quiet summer, the sky is dotted with stars. I . I miss your face."
While singing, she slightly raised her chin which was gradually becoming pointed, shook her head playfully, and tilted her body left and right, with her toes gently drawing semicircles in the air.
Although her singing was average, it was sweet, especially in this scene. Xu Cheng seemed to see butterflies flying around her.
Feeling a little thirsty, the girl took a big plastic water bottle and gulped down several mouthfuls. A few drops of water playfully slid down the corners of her mouth, along her chin and into the collar of her white T-shirt.
Xu Cheng took the water bottle from her, held it high in the air and took a few sips. The girl was in a good mood and didn't care much this time.
"Xu Cheng, which bus should we wait for?"
"2nd way."
"Is that the one? Here it comes!"
"No, that's bus No. 13. Do you need to wear glasses?"
"I just saw it. When I looked at it just now, the car was still very far away!"
The No. 13 bus whizzed by, and the two waited for several minutes but the one they were waiting for didn't come.
Xu Cheng looked around and handed the bag into Lin Wanzhou's arms.
"Wait for me here for a moment, don't run around."
Lin Wanzhou looked at him blankly. As soon as he stood up, the girl quickly followed suit.
Xu Cheng asked in confusion , "Why are you following me?"
"Where are you going?"
She seemed a little nervous, even though she was already a grown girl who could take a bus by herself and knew how to get back to Jinghai. Besides, it was broad daylight now, so there was no need to worry about ghosts appearing.
But she just didn't dare to leave him.
Xu Cheng said helplessly, "I, I'm going to pee in the grass behind, don't follow me..."
"oh."
After walking a few more steps forward, he found that Lin Wanzhou was still following closely.
"You pee, I won't watch."
The girl pursed her lips, looking nonchalant. "Even if you take off your pants and ask me to look, I won't. What's so good about it? Is it beautiful? Besides, I've seen it once before..."
Xu Cheng's head was full of black lines.
How come she still remembers those little things that happened in kindergarten?
And he didn't know how to explain to her that boys couldn't shush when being stared at.
"I'm right behind the bus stop. I won't abandon you..."
Lin Wanzhou crossed his arms in frustration, "Who, who is afraid that you will abandon me..."
Although she said so, when Xu Cheng was halfway through pouring water, the girl shouted anxiously, "Xu Cheng, we are taking bus No. 2, right?"
"right."
Xu Cheng, who was watering nature, agreed.
He knew she just wanted to make sure he was still there.
Shake yourself off as per international practice and then slowly walk back to the bus stop.
Lin Wanzhou looked very uneasy. She rubbed the ground with her feet from time to time, tugged at the corners of her clothes, and pulled at the straps of her schoolbag.
Seeing Xu Cheng coming back, she hit him lightly on the arm and complained.
"Why do you take so long to pee? Do you have frequent urination?"
"What do you mean by frequent urination? Where did you learn these crap words? And the long duration should also mean waiting to urinate or not being able to urinate completely."
"I saw it on a commercial during a TV show. Can't you wait until you get to Yinze to pee? Xu Cheng must be in a hurry to pee."
"Urgent peeing doesn't mean what you think it means, okay!"
The two discussed pee literature for a while, and bus No. 2 drove towards the station.
The car door opened, and the girl had already talked about Xu Cheng's current peeing problem and his peeing problem when he was in kindergarten .
"...You're already in the senior class and you still wet your pants. It's so embarrassing. Especially when Teacher Xiaoyang was holding you... Ugh!"
Seeing the ticket seller standing at the door with a smile on her face, Xu Cheng quickly reached out to cover Lin Wanzhou's mouth to stop her from continuing to reveal her childhood embarrassment.
Lin Wanzhou's little face is very tender and smooth, like the soft and sticky snow meringue. After touching it, people can't help but want to take another bite.
After she reacted, her face turned red like a tomato. Her warm and soft body rolled back and forth in Xu Cheng's arms, twisting and turning, and she kept poking his stomach with her elbow.
"Hiss...loosen your mouth..."
Xu Cheng's wish to take a small bite of her food was not fulfilled, and instead she took a big bite.
"Are you two going or not?" the conductor holding a small notebook urged on the bus.
"Go, go, go..."
Xu Cheng reluctantly pulled the still angry Lin Wanzhou into the car. There were no seats left, so the two had to stand. It was difficult for them to reach the handle on the roof, so they had to hold on to the seat beside them.
Lin Wanzhou's face was still hot. Thinking of the scene just now, her heart was pounding and she stepped on Xu Cheng angrily.
"Xu Cheng, you're done! I'll go home and tell Aunt He how you bullied me."
"Is it because of me alone..."
The car started with a rumble. The girl turned her back to Xu Cheng and watched the broken bus stop sign outside the window slowly disappearing into the distance. She suddenly felt very reluctant to leave.
The pupils remained fixed on the small bus stop sign until it disappeared from sight.
Xu Cheng patted her shoulder and she turned around unhappily.
"What?"
Xu Cheng handed the candy in his hand to her, "Here, do you want to try it?"
Lin Wanzhou could still see the teeth marks on his hand.
I don't know if it still hurts...
"Then, peel one for me to eat."
Xu Cheng tore off the candy coating, held the candy between his fingers and handed it to her mouth. She put it in her mouth with a "ah", and after a few seconds, her little mouth moved slightly and her expression looked a little weird.
"What does it taste like?"
“It tastes like durian.”
"Durian flavor? Why is it a bit salty..."
